Tenese Sarwieh Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 You know Kingston is on cloud nine doing this, happy for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 That's awesome. Eddie was so fucking happy (and nervous) at their first meeting. Him getting to do this interview is gonna be a complete nerd out, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 As someone who sunk way too much time in Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 on the N64 back in the day, I marked the fuck out hearing Kawada's theme. All of a sudden I was 19 years old in my bedroom wailing on geeks with Dangerous K all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 Also wouldn't it be amazing if Eddie's worship of Kawada ends up changing his views on foreigners? It's like those two are like the little kid and the old man from Up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like those two are like the little kid and the old man from Up. Kawada’s view on foreigners must have started to soften already if he has agreed to travel to North America. I don’t know where I read it (it was so long ago) but I had heard Kawada had vowed he would never come back after his “learning excursion” in the 80’s.

sek69 Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 He did not have a good experience on excursion to the US/Canada and would barely speak of, it. In fairness he spent that time in Texas and Calgary in the 80s , so god knows what horrors he walked in on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 Kawada also worked for Lutte Internationale in Montreal during his excursion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 Maybe it's just me projecting because I was one of them, but part of me thinks Kawada would probably find it cool that a bunch of American nerds were singing his praises back in the day to the point it's just gospel now to anyone who's a NA based rasslin fan.
